Pictures? type of light? I'm not a hydro guy, but 300ppm sounds like 500ppm too low.

EDIT: LOL we were typing at same time..... You were answering my questions as I was typing them.

 

[bridie121]

LMAO!! Yeah but im scared of burning them now so im trying to see how they go and just increase it step by step

I don't blame you. Hydro is unforgiving of mistakes.

id add a few drops of hormex per gallon h20 the vitaims and hormones should get your roots back on track id also take them off hps for a few days cause there a little fragle right now florecnts or mild hps should work nice for you ...300 ppm might be so low that its sucking nuits from plant id bumb up to 500 ppm and mist them with just water to suck out the toxictey ...good luck man hope you girls make it

Thanks so much sappytree +REP 4 YOU!! Will bump up to 500ppm and see what happens, does anyone know what could of caused them to just stop?

Stunted growth due to shock most likely.

 

[bridie121]

What could they be shocked from?? Couldn't be the hps cuz I moved em in there like a month ago and they had a growth spurt then came to a dead stop

This seems like the best answer. What were you doing the week before they stoped growing? A sudden change in almost anything can stunt your plant.

You said you burned them. That is a shock.

 

[bridie121]

What is the temperature?? If it gets too warm many plants, including MJ, close their stomata and become dormant.

 

[bridie121]

generally 26 degrees celcius, has got up to 30 before but only happened once, gets down to about 17 with lights off, lights are off for 4 hours, and the humidity generally sits between 30-50 has got up to 75% b4 im not sure how lol but it happened.
